Thank you for this fantastic video! We are thrilled that you have formed a partnership with Tajima. We have the Tajima Sai. Our embroidery software is Hatch 3 . The manual for the Tajima Sai speaks about certain stops that are programmed into the machine by the user. Section 8.3.1, “When a green message screen is displayed,” details these stops. (Stop by frame stepping code, Stop by Color Change, Stop by end code, Stop by thread trimming code, Stop by automatic offset code, Stop by temporary stop code, Stop by stop switch). To be clear, these are not stops that are programmed into the design created in Hatch 3. The User Guide for Hatch 3 states the following: “Normally color changes are associated with Stop functions. Depending on machine file, however, the design may include an additional last stop to ensure the machine returns to the starting needle for the next run.” We have 2 questions: 1. Will the Tajima Sai recognize a stop created in the design in Hatch 3 or any other software? 2. Would there be different ways of creating a stop in Hatch 3 or any other software depending upon what type of stop it would give to the Tajima Sai?
I always enjoy watching your videos because you are very thorough. I do have your book. I read it and have re-read it several times to be sure I have a clear understanding about embroidery -- dos and don'ts. Thank you for sharing your attention to detail.
Thank you so much. I use Hatch, and although they have a tin of videos and your partnership with them have ended, I have learned a lot from the course I purchased from you.
Hi John, I just wanted to say I really love your videos and in particular the great looking digitizing that you show from time to time, which leads me to my next question, do you offer digitizing services? If not can you recommend someone??
Thanks for the compliment. We haven’t offered custom digitizing for many years as our focus has been on stock designs. Unfortunately don’t have any outsourcing recommendations but I know there are not shortage of digitizing companies offering services.
Hello MR John, what needle size recommended for embroidery hats. I have same machine and im new on this field, hopefully i can learn from you,, greetings from MTY Mexico
@darehousegrill Generally, a 75/11 needle is the most commonly used needle size for embroidering on hats. However, the ideal needle size can vary slightly depending on a few factors: *Hat Material: Thicker hat materials might require a slightly larger needle like an 80/12 for easier penetration. *Embroidery Design: Fine details might benefit from a smaller needle like a 70/10, while bolder designs can handle a larger needle. *Embroidery Machine: Some machines might have specific needle recommendations based on their hook and thread tension systems.
Was that design specific for hats? If not, did you reduce the number of stitches or anything like that? Do you have designs on your site that are hat specific?
If artwork falls within a size that might be used on a cap we try to digitize it for that application, if a design runs well on a cap it will run well on a flat surface. For that reason we don’t have a cap category on our site.
Every single time I have attempted hats on my Sai I get the 322 error code having to do with the Y axis per the manual. Someone told me it has to do with the bill of the hat hitting the machine. I’ve tried to bend it out of the way as much as possible but it still never works. Any thoughts on this frustrating issue? Thank you for a great video.
That error occurs when you trace that design and prevent the machine from ruining caps when the design is too close to the bill. Yes, it is caused by the resistance when the bill is too close back of the machine. Bending the bill helps and then I move the design slightly higher until the error message does not show up.
